CO Welcomes The Real Dogbert

Well, actually not the real Dogbert…but close! This puppeh is Snickers, and the hoomin taking up valuable space in the photos happens to be his owner, Dilbert creator Scott Adams. We asked Scott to try and take a “selfie” of himself and Snickers, but…he failed at that. So his assistant took these shots. (Failure? Scott’s got a new book out on that, BTW!)

I think comparing “women” (as a big monolithic group) to children demanding candy or to the “mentally handicapped” (his words) is more than cluelessness. Or claiming that society curbs men’s desires (but not women’s). Trolling might be the best word for it.

Scott is not a loathsome sexist, but he does have the unfortunate habit of saying things that many men believe, but are smart enough not to say out loud. However, he is one of the most brazenly egotistical hoomins ever to voice opinions of himself in public. Scott Adams is, by far, Scott Adams’ biggest fan. He is, though, interesting and frequently thought provoking. He is nowhere near the caliber of greatness he believes that he is, but he is worth reading.

Am I the only one who thinks it looks like the dog is humping his arm in the second pic? And sorry folks, but I do like Dilbert. Learned more about working life from it then I ever did at school. And yes, it’s accurate ;P

No no no, Mr. Adams, you will not steal the show – not this time. Snickers will send you directly to Heck otherwise, or worse – to see the HR Manager!

PS. May I just take a moment to say PHB was the reason I started studying IT Management… and that I changed to another field when Dilbert comics were no longer fun but described my normal day in the office? :P
